(BBC)Why North East Asia is wary of immigration
Release Date

Summary
Japan is tightening permanent residency rules, visa fees, and compliance requirements as concerns grow over the rapid increase in foreign residents, who now make up more than 3% of the population. Despite continuing population decline, Japan remains cautious about using large-scale immigration as a demographic solution.
Similar attitudes can be seen in China, where foreign residents account for less than 0.1% of the population and the government focuses instead on encouraging higher birth rates. The discussion examines why Japan and China remain reluctant to embrace mass immigration and how perceptions of Western multiculturalism influence public attitudes in North East Asia.
